Things were slow this week. We were waiting on Jude's medical appointment information to be sent to the Embassy and for the Embassy to call us to set up an appointment. We are used to waiting, but we have found when you are closer to going home, everyday counts. When you have nothing on your schedule to do it makes the days longer and when the electric goes out for hours at a time during the day it makes them even longer. After a week of calling and emailing the medical office without a response, Andrew decided to go to the office to see if he could get some information. After being told several different things about the status of our paperwork, he found out it had been sent and received by the Embassy on Wednesday...but under the wrong name. The lady he was speaking to very casually said the Embassy would figure it out. Thanks to Andrew's persistence, she called the Embassy, and before he left we had an appointment for Monday morning!
So, Monday, we will drop off all our paperwork to the Embassy. Hopefully everything will be correct and hopefully we will have everything we need. We could possibly be scheduled that same day for an exit interview or we could be scheduled later in the week. Jude's biological mom has to travel 8 hours on a bus to come to the Embassy to sign a release form, so I'm thinking our exit interview may have to be scheduled later in the week.
Yay! We are so happy things are moving forward! Please pray things would go smoothly next week. If so, we may be home next weekend!!
I took Jude out for a little photo session this evening...I caught this one while we were singing "If you're happy and you know it..."
